For £999 they look OK (spec wise) I just hope and pray that they reliability is better than TINY............Proof will be in the picture tho.....

hi bud i don't know if its the same as the hyundai 4240, its ok on a scart lead but do u think it might be better on some form of other lead as i am new to plasma. only had it 2 days, thank's about the code u told me 2 put in but it did not work and sky say they might have the remote code for these tv's soon or may be not (nice one)

Not really very impressed with s-video myself slightly worse than scart ,Pal not RGB I guess.

I've got my Sky+ box connected through a scart sync separator to the anolog RGB (VGA)input,my DVD by component & when I get a DVI cable my computer to the Digital RGB input .
I was going to buy one when I was out ,but the only place that had them was PC World & they wanted £50 for a DVI cable

also interested in the results of DVI especailly if it will accept WS resolutions a looking at the manual they are all 4:3

The DVI picture is very good ,but as yet I can only get 4:3 resolutions.
Microsoft don't seem to have drivers for widescreen plasmas,but reading their website it sounds like Windows XP Media Center Edition may be what we need .
Could Microsoft be trying to make us spend more money do you think?

try using pwerstrip to set 1920x1080 or or 1366x720 it may be the Hyundai will only take 4:3 signals via VGA or DVi inputs... (try WXGA on PC) thanks for the input mate but i think this might be the stubling block.....
